Assembly is best done in the area where the saw will be used. When you remove the saw and hardware from the packing materials, carefully check the items with the Loose Parts list. If you are unsure about the description of any part, refer to their illustrations. For your convenience, all fasteners have been drawn actual size. If any parts are missing, delay assembling until you have obtained the missing part(s).

Your radial arm saw is capable of a wide variety of operations, and thus requires a number of initial setup adjustments. However, once the saw is set up, you can check your saw in about ten minutes and correct any misalignment with the procedures in the Adjust- ment section.

,_ CAUTION: Perform all the procedures in both the Assembly and Adjustments sections before

using the saw. Run a check on your saw frequently, referring to the Adjustments section. Failure to perform the adjustments in the initial set up or on a frequent basis can result in poor performance or machine damage.
